doesnt work, ive shot in volleys of 2+2 and all got intercepted, anti air is way overtuned, they literally notice the missile the instnat its off the rails
What range? Using American rubbish I was consistently able to get them through sub 30km.
i havent tried taking down s300s so maybe those are easier than osas for some reason. osas are just bonkers.
regardless of that its clear that the aas are overperfoming, they behave like they have the best radars in the game
Toss bomb OSA. Do not fire ARMs at OSA unless you have a squad mate.
They’re overtuned, almost as much as the Hawk is. Suspect it is on account of the back up targeting rubbish that was optical, and the game using that to have it be the targeting system utilised.

You should try to double tap static AAs first, from ground level.
For some reason the mavericks are not blocked by trees when launched at ground level.
There is a reason everybody play the Strela or Flarak instead of Osa. It is the 2 kms minimum range

Hoping both the Tu 95 and American abomination get their better ordnance.
Luckily they aren’t stronger than the nukes lol
Nice!
Unfortunately besides some very early cruise missiles Tu-95M is kind of at the end of it’s rope afaik.
*Unlike the US, Soviet/Russian Bomber doctrine post-ALCM introduction is mainly just long range CM slinging, no CAS or any smaller ordinance like paveways/JDAMs like American counterparts.
Tu 95 was able to carry Kh 101, alongside a host of other stuff that we won’t see on account of the nuclear payload. 101 would be a nice addition to come with Tu 95.
Not Tu-95M, that’d be MS/MSM.
Forgot. Shame we are going to get another knee capped bomber for the Russians then. Similar sorry state to the Su 24 missing a large amount of functionality.
Yeah, would’ve been nice if we got Tu-95MS instead anyways… Looks much nicer.
And about 24M2? What’s it missing besides I suppose ARMs and cluster munitions? Unless you mean MITL related things?
Here’s hoping we get it in the tech tree alongside the V bombers.
We won’t, but it would be nice.
Lacking ELINT capability (even just the pod would have been nice to see in this event), missing ARMs and clusters, missing MAWS of the variant we have armament from. Just a bit of a sorry state.

Eh I’d count myself lucky if we even see 95MS/MSM as event vics.
acking ELINT capability (even just the pod would have been nice to see in this event), missing ARMs and clusters, missing MAWS of the variant we have armament from. Just a bit of a sorry state.
ELINT is just a missing thing from many things however I believe that was Su-24MR’s specialty iirc.
And L-082 MAKS should the correct MAWS suite for 24M2.
Does anyone know whats a good distance for bomb tossing with the f4e and the mig 23 (for both nukes and normal bombs)
Yeah. Any one interested in bombers is pretty much doomed because quake with planes makes more coin.
You’re correct that it was present on this variant, but ELINT is utilised in the deployment of both ARMs we received, to gather the necessary targeting information. Which would have been nice to see on the 24 in the form of the pod, if we aren’t going to see the correct variant. The inability for any accurate targeting is just very tedious, especially as we’re deploying these weapons akin to American doctrine, not Soviet/Russian.
Might have changed, remembered spitting about the fact the representation in game was inaccurate. Though if it’s been fixed, I’ll take it.
Well, for WT’s sake L-081 Fantasmagoria/L-150 works just fine since for now targeting is the only issue when it comes to ARMs implementation in game.
My only real issue with ARM usage/targeting is that there’s no way easy to switch between targets.
Speaking of pods however, things like photographic reconnaissance pods (Like TARPS or Raptor) would be very interesting and silly things to implement, maybe would allow for some spotting from the air, OP? probably, however it’d be fun.
